Seears Park

Sears Park icon

Once a cornfield, Seears Park is now a lovely place for a stroll. It was bequeathed in perpetuity to the people of the borough by Mr and Mrs John Seears, who had lived nearby in Quarry Park Rise, and opened formally as a park in 1934.

Seears Park on St. Dunstans Hill occupies an area of 1.94 hectares. The park's name is often mispelled as 'Seers' or 'Sears'.

Plinth at entrance to Sears Park

Above: Plinth at the entrance to Seears Park, made from Portland stone and carved to resemble two outward facing heads. It used to be topped by a drinking fountain with a statue of a boy, and bear an inscription thanking the Seears for their generous gift of the park – however, over the years, bits have disappeared, leaving only the plinth standing
